Have anyone used or bought this laptop how does it perform? Is it a good deal? I tend to use it for programming not gaming.

    My brother moved out so he left some stuff and he left an 8gb ddr4 behind it should be easy to upgrade it right?

      im not sure but i think most of laptops only has one ram slots,that means you can’t use 2 of 8gb rams

      upgrading ram is pretty simply, just by searching on net, you’ll get hundreds of videos. and if you’re still worried you can give it to some repair shops, shouldn’t cost much

        Gaming laptops have at least 2 RAM Slots. The issue is this may be DDR5 RAM

        -Intel Employee

          even if it was ddr5 , it should mentioned in the title of the product,

          -Intel Employee

            It’s usually not posted in the title but it should be in the details. 13th gen typically has DDR5 unless it s a budget model but RTX 30 series was usually paired with DDR4 so it’s really a toss up here.

            Also yes the intel employee bit is relevant. I work in sales so I’m privy to a lot of this information

        Most laptops have 2 slots, but I’d suggest getting a matching stick if possible. Some laptops have soldered ram, so watch out for that.
